Upload a research paper. Get a narrated, figure-rich slide presentation — with audit, Q&A, and comprehension assessment. All from a single conversation. Docent is an open-source AI presenter powered by a human-AI symbiotic loop. Its AI persona Sage takes you through five stages: document analysis → structured slide synthesis → narrated delivery → conversational refinement → interactive assessment. In this demo, Sage analyzes a 23-page Nature paper on Drosophila computational brain modeling, generates a 14-slide journal club presentation with extracted figures and custom SVG diagrams, narrates the lecture, audits its own claims for accuracy, and tests your understanding with adaptive questions. 🔗 LINKS GitHub (open source): https://github.com/symbiont-ai/docent Deploy on Vercel: https://vercel.com/new/clone?repository-url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fsymbiont-ai%2Fdocent ⚙️ KEY FEATURES • Vision-based PDF analysis — every page as high-res image for full LLM context • Custom SVG diagrams — flowcharts, timelines, network diagrams, and more • Extracted PDF figures — LLM-predicted bounding boxes with automatic cropping • Dual TTS narration — browser-native (free) + Google Gemini neural voice • Self-audit — verifies slide claims against the source paper • Adaptive assessment — Socratic Q&A that probes and scaffolds understanding • Multi-model BYOK — Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini, Llama, DeepSeek, Qwen via OpenRouter • PPTX & HTML export • Fully browser-based, zero install 🛠️ BUILT WITH Next.js • React 19 • TypeScript • OpenRouter • pdfjs-dist • Web Speech API • Gemini TTS 📄 LICENSE MIT — free to use, modify, and deploy. #AI #Research #Presentation #OpenSource #LLM #Claude #NextJS #MachineLearning #AcademicTools #Docent submitted by /u/Dry_Birthday674
